Top 10 Worst Disney Attraction Refurbishments
The original Journey Into Imagination was absolutely amazing. Journey Into YOUR Imagination was horrible. The public hated it so much that Disney closed the ride just two years after its opening.
What a great idea, Disney. Get one of your best rides and turn it into something based on one of the most overrated movies in history.
I agree that they shouldn't have closed Tower of Terror, but Mission Breakout is still pretty fun.
What happens when you have a high-speed ride on an older structure? It damages it and frequently breaks down. Rocket Rods was extremely unreliable and broke down at least once a day.
They could've just demolished the entire track and rebuilt the tracks from scratch, adding new track effects to make it fast.
This year, they removed the moving walkway and all the screens that showed your face. You know, some people have trouble walking due to things like diabetes or MS, but now they will have to suffer even more.
Too dark. You can't see anything.
Journey Into Imagination With Figment is better than its predecessor, but nowhere near the 80s version.
Once again, closing a great ride and turning it into something based on two of the most annoying characters in animation history.
Doing it to get more money. Cough, cough.
I myself don't hate this refurbishment anymore, but there are a lot of people who do.
The Newcomers
That's enough Star Wars, Disney!
They should've kept it Paradise Pier instead of changing it to Pixar Pier.
Why did they close this ride? Wasn't this everyone's favorite ride before the Pixar Pier retheme?
UGH. This was the WORST! They turned a great attraction into garbage.
Worst Disney move, they turned one of the best attractions into the worst.
And they made it even worse when it became Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain. Greedy Disney with all the Star Wars stuff.
This is for Disneyland Paris, though I heard rumors that Disney's going to turn Disney World's version into a Monsters, Inc. door factory.
I used to ride this a long time ago when it was original and classic, and we crashed through a barn. Now, Disney changed it to fit with the new Storybook Circus after closing down Toontown Fair. Apparently, you don't crash through a barn anymore but a billboard. I don't get why it's still called the Barnstormer. They ruined a wonderful ride.
